Improv Performance Review

On Friday night, I went to the improv performance. I was very impressed with how all of the actors were able to think on their feet. I really enjoyed this performance because the audience was very involved with the performances regarding the setting, the characters names and their backgrounds. The performances were very funny and entertaining. One of the games that I liked the most was the blind dating game because it was really funny watching the performers act out the people that they were assigned to. One person was told to be a princess another was told to be a model and the other person was told to be a grandma. What made the performance more entertains was the crowd because the people there were into it and it made the improv a lot more interesting with people trying to act with them. Another one of the games was where the performers had to act out the scenes in 60 seconds then 30 seconds then 15 seconds and then 5 seconds. Watching this I realized how long 60 seconds really is on stage because I could tell that the performers were not sure what to act out. As the time kept going down the actors got funnier because they were trying to do the same performance in a lesser amount of time. By the time it was 5 seconds basically there was just a bunch of screaming and running back and forth on the stage. I didn't particularly like the last game where they had to get someone to get off the bench. I felt like it wasn't as good as the rest of the games and performance that were done before hand. If they would have thought of something else for the ending I think that the performance would have been even better
